“We are expecting at least 2, 000 participants from and beyond the state,” he added.
According to him, the youth and women wing of the PCRC at the state level will also be inaugurated.
He continued: “We hope to lure more women and youths to assist in community policing through this programme,” using the ENDSARS protests as a case study.
He recalled how women were seen cooking foods for those that had hijacked the ENDSARS protests, stressing that they lacked awareness of their roles as regards community policing.
